arrow weighing 410 gr or one weighing 465 gr ? to get to 410gr i just need to go to 125gr b head , that i dont have, shoot 100gr rage. to get to 465gr i need brass inserts, and use the 100gr rage bh that i already have, thanks

I had the same choice to make . . .I ended up going to the 125 gr broadhead because I couldn't remove the inserts from my Gorilla Glued arrows.

Turned out very good, my current set-up is awesome.

Curious as to what weight CB you're shooting. Maybe you could just stay with the 100 gr. heads giving you a 385 grain arrow? Maybe make your decision based on % FOC you'd get from each setup?

Take care...

I have a Ibex shoot what ever you like best. I have shot the day lights out of mine with just about every kind of arrow and broad head. In side of 40yds unless it get 500gr+ POI does not change much at all. These excals just shoot It wouldnt surprise me if some one came on here and said they were shooting a peace water line LOL

If they are accurate now and you like the set-up, then I would not change. If you are having penetration issues(like not getting a pass through) or accuracy issues with the broadhead you are shooting(not shooting like field tips), then adding weight may help.

it shoots great up to 30 yds the after that it opens up, wanting to tighten group beyond 30 yds
